Virgin Soil Upturned: Book One | 
I tend to stick with the books, though sometimes it takes years to finish them :) The one I chucked across the room was Sholokhov's epic novel in two tomes about the collectivization process in the Soviet Union aimed at the consolidation of individual land and labor into collective farms and the hardship the people endured because of it. It took him 28 years to write it. It was on the shool syllabus but #DNF
